红楼梦Chapter9

Hsi Jen then went on to speak. ve also packed up， she continued， your long pelisse， and handed it to the pages to take it over; so mind， when its cold in the school-room， please remember to put on this extra clothing， for its not like home， where you have people to look after you. The foot-stove and hand-stove， Ive also sent over; and urge that pack of lazy-bones to attend to their work， for if you say nothing， they will be so engrossed in their frolics， that theyll be loth to move， and let you， all for nothing， take a chill and ruin your constitution.

While saying this， he had completed his toilette， and Hsi Jen pressed him to go and wish good morning to dowager lady Chia， Chia Cheng， madame Wang， and the other members of the family.

Pao-yue， after having gone on to give a few orders to Ching Wen and She Yueh， at length left his apartments， and coming over， paid his obeisance to dowager lady Chia. Her venerable Ladyship had likewise， as a matter of course， a few recommendations to make to him， which ended， he next went and GREeted madame Wang; and leaving again her quarters， he came into the library to wish Chia Cheng good morning.
